Fecebook out of all FAGMAN companies should be dissolved for good: it produces nothing of a value (they don’t make an useful products like email in google or a hardware laptop in MS for example), even big products like whatsapp or instagram were acquired, it is comically evil, it’s probably the first company to eavesdrop on its users daily convos through their apps to show ads, and it operates like a mafia or a syndicate, and you would know if you had your account auto flagged or banned, there’s no email or a person to talk to (that was before AI chat support too), you need to know someone who knows someone who knows someone to pull some strings inside to look at your account..

If i was an ex founder and having a low profile in a big company, I am doing it on purpose, either to have a peaceful life or heal from a burnout, definitely I don’t want to be on the spot like that, especially when I am not innovating anything new nor I will take any meaningful credit after since it will mostly go to AI, worse, if it didn’t work out I will have my career ruined being known to had an unlimited supply of tokens and still failed.

Nice video, but I have said it before, the difference between just “vibe coding” and reliably using AI is the specs you need to write first and the tests after. If you start prompting the end goal/s the AI will basically guide you on what needs to be done and you just accept it as long as it runs, and this is following what most software developers were doing before LLM, the agile way, the quick ship way, the daily standup and ship first discus later way, the code pairing way, which worked mostly (even though I hated personally) in teams, so these developers are replacing what they were used to do with an agent and that’s the mistake. However, if you go with traditional engineering ways, waterfall, specs based, blueprints, and then tests, you control the agents and guide them not the other way around, in your specs you define the tiniest possible thing to what library to be used or excluded, the methods and approaches, among others, the agent here will produce the syntax and help you in the tests, just like in other engineering aspects how machines didn’t take over, they follow your specs and frameworks. The syntax is the past, AI can produce better syntax than any human alive or all combined, if you think otherwise you are delusional and still didn’t move on, it’s time to stop the “developer” mindset and do the engineering one.

I personally have a project that have been spending 2 months now making the specs and blueprint, more than 1000 files defining every bit including the future features too, and not a single code has been written yet, later, an agent will use this to produce the syntax and all the needed tests to have exactly what’s been needed.

No need to be dramatic, some people’s first language isn’t English, some have dyslexia, some just hate writing (myself) and won’t bother reading it twice to fix typos or grammar, your criticism is ok if the context doesn’t matter, but I would be ok with a fully generated landing page if the exploit is worthy.

Crazy, I have a cool startup idea that’s around this concept that been working on casually for some time, telepathy?

The question that a lot of people aren’t asking, these AI models were trained on human actual data, researches, answers, and books. Now AI removed the need to create those and people aren’t incentivized to make any new ones, the newer models say in a year or so will be trained on slop, piles and piles of slop, how’s their intelligence will be?

What an interesting times, a hack the “exposes” people who are supposedly and should be publicly known to start with.

Touch screens are dead, no one ever said good things about them. Also, I think the best setup now (regardless macos or linux) is having your heavy lifting compute at home and you use something like macbook air and ssh into it, that way you get the best portability and also you are secure if your laptop is lost.

So now we are just showing some tables with each model?! Who even used argon in normal day to day stuff? From the time they opened Argon publicly to now, it’s like: three weeks maybe?! Most these benchmarks weren’t realistic to start with, and now it is just meaningless tables, not to mention the model degrade from the release date to after few weeks.

How’s this even news? Most if not all youtubers are shills, paid shills, and they are not hiding it with sponsorship, and even the ones who say “i bought it with my own money so im honest” are rarely honest because they don’t want to upset the brand who can hurt them legally or preventing them from buying their stuff in the future, or the fans so means less subscribers. The rare good youtubers are usually the ones that you don’t know because YT never promoted their vids or the ones that post one vid a year or so.

Not realistic, a tire blow is not the same as tire air out, within seconds, the rubber part is gone and you are left on the rim only, it’s when the real problem starts.

I find it interesting that people still catching up on SSG, my sites are statics, if not ssg (zola) they are just html/js/css, and that was before LLM boom, it’s far easier now to do.

Also in this era, I would avoid anything python/C/C++ or things built on top of them like PHP, the former one was never meant to be anything but to hack few things for data scientists, and the later is ancient memory unsafe one. There should be a new language (besides the safe ones) where it’s ok if it’s unreadable to humans but it checks all safety and security checks, written by LLM based on the specs you write, we passed the point now where you think you are better than llm in writing the syntax.

Except, it’s the government and in its interests to bring back the status quo. More people commuting means they have to live in high taxes area, from mortgages of residential and commercial properties, or rent, or goods and local businesses, all the way to not needing to build infrastructure in rural areas. Plus, banks were crying during the wfh for those reasons. Wfh brings the power back to employees or people, while the old 9-5 (which was invented by fords factories and never meant for offices) keep the status of wealthy getting wealthier and the employees getting more miserable.

Right?! I think sol has some obsessive tendencies, i literally caught it the other day spawning a sub sub agent doing a final fourth test for a piece of code that isn’t even critical say in embedded or similar, now I have to instruct it to only test once!
